Has anyone been Successful getting sirius to work on their Touch?[

[livi79]

nope not me

[bigbabydaddy196]

Does Pandora.com work? Or last.fm? Those alone would be worth getting a Touch....

[ncvaco]

Does not look like last.fm works. I think the player is flash based. The lack of flash is the one thing I hate about the touch.

[fynebawdee]

I concur. No flash sucks. I would love to be able to listen to Sirius on my Touch. Oh well. Hopefully there will be a way soon.

I got Sirius to work once on my Touch. I forgot where I got the info, but there is a way. Orb.com has a utility that you run in the background of your PC and then while on your Touch, go to the myorb.com site (something like that), you can stream media to your Touch. You have to set up your account online first with your favorite Sirius channels and whatever other media you like. I got it to work only the first time, so if anyone else gets it to work, please let me know.

Hey everyone,

I am listening to Sirius with Orb and uSirius.

You will need the uSirius to run on a pc to stream.

Download it here (http://www.millardsoftware.com/usirius)

[chris1374]

Still no luck for me. I had already downloaded the uSirius1.0RC5. I have it and Orb running on my main computer and all i get is the server not responding message when I try to play my favorite channel. There must be something wrong with my order of operations when trying to implement this. Any help from anyone would be great.

Thanks in advance...

Did do a port fowarding on your router at home?

uSirius uses port 19080, so you need to forward that port to your pc's ip address.

also is your Orb client running, you get the orb page on your touch?

[chris1374]

Yes, yes, and yes. The first time I tried to get Sirius to work (the only time it did work!), I had the Orb client running and the uSirius client running too. The second time, I forgot to run the uSirius, so understandable why it didn't work. However, last night while attempting Sirius again, I ran the Orb client, I ran the uSirius client and seen the message of what's going on with the uSirius client with port 19080. So I port forwarded like you mentioned, but still no luck. I will try again when I get home, cause maybe I needed to reset or reboot or something. Once I have router properly ported, will this setup stream the media content to my PS3 and Xbox360 like it should? Cause I get the same problems with those as well. Thanks!
